Yes it does! :-) [ducks]
Just want to take a moment to strongly encourage anyone who's looking for a better database solution than Access to check out MySQL, particularly if you don't have budget for SQL Server or something even more expensive (although I use it a lot even if people do have budget). They have a great installer for Windows now that makes it incredibly easy to get up and running if you're not a Unix-head, and it's a fantastic database server all around. Version 5 just went beta and it adds stored procedures, views, and triggers so functionality-wise it's up there with the best of them, and it's also incredibly fast, robust, stable, and FREE!
Sorry to sound like a salesman but I've had nothing but fantastic luck with MySQL every time I've used it. Check it out if you haven't already!
